What is established and what is not
No researcher review has been written for this company yet. 19 official records from 11 official sources are on file. 5 other entries are not official records: our own technical checks and searches, open directory listings, our inferences or the company's own statements. Everything is listed below with its evidence type: each entry confirms only what it literally says; none of them is a review. The manufacturing role above rests on the official records listed below, and only as far as each literally goes: a facility registration or licence is not an observation of current production. Nothing here confirms ownership or trading status beyond what each record literally says.
Facts on file, each with its evidence type
- Website domain registered (record type: domain-registered) [our own observation, not an official record; status green] Shows how long this web address has been registered. That is the age of the domain, not of the company: a domain can change owners. checked 2026-08-19. Domain registry record
- First recorded on the web archive (record type: web-presence-since) [our own observation, not an official record; status green] The company website was already online in 2018. Shows a web archive saw a page at this address on that date. It does not show who ran the site then. checked 2026-08-21. Internet Archive (Wayback)
- No insolvency proceedings on record (record type: insolvency-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; status green] We searched the official bulletin and found no insolvency proceedings on that date. checked 2026-10-13. BODACC (annuaire-entreprises)
- On the company register (record type: registered-since) [official record; status green] On the company register since 1988. Shows how long the company has been on the state register, which is hard to fake and easy to check. effective since 2026-08-01. INSEE SIRENE (Registre national des entreprises)
- Operating permit for the production site (record type: operating-permit) [official record; status green] Shows an authority issued a permit for an installation at this site for the activity named in the record. A permit is not an inspection report and not an observation that production is running today. effective since 2026-05-07. Georisques, French register of classified installations (ICPE)
- An environmental inspector visited the plant, on the official record (record type: facility-inspected) [official record; status green] Inspected 2026-03-03. An inspector came to the site on that date, so the site existed then and was not only licensed on paper. The visit itself does not show what was being made there. checked 2026-10-13. Georisques, French register of classified installations (ICPE)
- Street address on file in the state register (record type: registered-address) [official record; status green] The address the company itself gave the register, so post and inspectors reach it there. checked 2026-08-10. INSEE Sirene (annuaire-entreprises)
- registry-activity (record type: registry-activity) [official record; status green] Activity code in the state register: NAF 29.32Z. Shows what the state itself says the company does, which you can compare with what it promises you. checked 2026-09-07. France INSEE Sirene state register (data.gouv.fr bulk file)
- No match found on the sanctions lists we checked (record type: sanctions-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public sanctions datasets and found no matching candidate. A name search is not full compliance screening. checked 2026-08-16. OpenSanctions
- No match found in the debarment registers we checked (record type: debarment-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public debarment datasets and found no matching candidate. Absence from these lists is a search result, not a certificate. checked 2026-08-16. OpenSanctions
- Street address on file in the state register (record type: registered-establishment) [official record; status green] The place of business the company itself declared when it registered. The register records the declaration; it does not inspect the site or show that anything is made there. effective since 2026-08-01. INSEE SIRENE (Registre national des entreprises)
- The inspection report describes the site: La société AKWEL (ex MGI COUTIER) exploite, sur le territoire de la commune de NESLE, une usine (record type: facility-activity-described) [official record; status green] The inspection report describes the site: La société AKWEL (ex MGI COUTIER) exploite, sur le territoire de la commune de NESLE, une usine.

Georisques, French register of classified installations (ICPE)
- inspection-follow-up (record type: inspection-follow-up) [official record; status amber] Inspection 2026-03-03: 6 control points, 2 with follow-up: Localisation des risques: proposed Demande de justificatif à l'exploitant (request to the operator for supporting documents), 2 mois; Moyens de secours: proposed Demande d'action corrective (request for corrective action), 3 mois. The inspector checked each regulatory point and wrote down which ones need a follow-up.

- EU customs identifier (EORI) active (record type: export-registered-eori) [official record; status green] An EORI number identifies the company to EU customs for imports, exports and transit.
